Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 9, 2017 My car is going into the bodyshop for some remedial repairs on previous work I had done. I think the car will be gone about three weeks at a guess, maybe a bit quicker. I would like to get my TE37's refurbed whilst the car is in, but would need a set of wheels to send it off to the bodyshop. If anyone in the Manchester area has a spare set of wheels with legal tyres that I could borrow that would be fab. Alternatively if anyone has a used 215/45/17 I could put this on one of my spare rims and make a full set and do it that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike 458 Report post Posted October 9, 2017 Do you just need the 1 tyre? I've got a v105 on a stock wheel but will need to check what the tread is like but not's not much, maybe 3mm? Only others I have are some barely legal primacys on stock wheels and the federals that I wouldn't like to be on at this time of the year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only others I have are some barely legal primacys on stock wheels and the federals that I wouldn't like to be on at this time of the year! That will dot the job I think. Thanks for the other offers, but local is obviously better for me. It only has to go on for the bodyshop so as long as it's legal it, will do. I've got one Primacy on a wheel, the other two I have a contisport contact 5's that are not on the wheels, but have tons of tread. I just didnt like them. I suppose it will be cheaper for me if I don't have to mount any tyres onto rims. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie_GRMN 177 Report post Posted October 10, 2017 I’ve still got my blue compomotives with nearly new v105’s on, you’re welcome to borrow them but they are heavy wheels with 225’s on The other side of Chester so about 40mins from you I think, although I may be making the trip to RRG at the weekend to sign for the GRMN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 10, 2017 Thanks for the offer, Jamie, let me know if you are going to RRG at the weekend, I may just be on the way. It might be easier to borrow Mike's or ask Alec if he's stuck his winter tyres on by then. Or I wonder if the better option is to simply borrow that one wheel off Mike?

Mike 458 Report post Posted October 10, 2017 I'll double check the tread on the set of primacys of got, the rears I know were pretty worn when they came off, but you're welcome to use 1 or 4 of them. 1 Lauren reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicebiscuit 655 Report post Posted October 11, 2017 If you're still stuck Lauren, you can borrow my winters... And I'm in Macclesfield of course so you could pick em up on the way to RRG... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 11, 2017 Thanks, Joe, that's a good option. I wouldn't be looking to drive on them, I guess the car would be driven to the bodyshop and back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicebiscuit 655 Report post Posted October 12, 2017 Don't mind if you do drive on them - though we would all take the Mick... Lauren's car on knock-off JDM-copy wheels - whatever next ;-D Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

benmmellor 44 Report post Posted October 14, 2017 Lauren, got a full set of original wheels sat in garage. All with legal primacies on. Happy to loan them if you're happy to collect and return. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 15, 2017 Thanks for the kind offers guys, very much appreciated. I'll have a think. Haven't actually got a date from the bodyshop yet. But it will be November. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
